Blog Kiosk: 2/4/2011

The winter doldrums is about to end as the glory of Spring approaches. Of course, if you happen to be stuck in the snow then this might not apply to you.

Also, anyone know of a case break happening for 2011 Topps? I'd love to participate if I can get the Dodgers.

I'm loving Tom Hoffarth's series called "The Tao of Vin Scully." He simply ask some well seasoned broadcasters what they can learn by simply listening to Vin. Here, he ask Bob Miller (the Kings broadcaster) that question.

When a child in a wheelchair approached the table, having just an index card, Mize said, "Just a minute." He slowly, gently lowered himself (on two new surgically-repaired knees) to be at eye level with the young fan. "I want you to have this." Out came a 1952 Topps card. The real thing from the real "Big Cat."
